iPhone Music App Users turn off Sound Check

[yo dude]

So YMMV. This is for those using Apple Music.

One of the last things I had to do to make the Supra audio system sound decent after doing the hole punch mod was to go into Settings > Music > Toggle OFF Sound Check.

Apple Music streams higher quality than Spotify or YT Music. But for some reason Apple Music was consistently sounding awful compared to every other streaming platform.

Did some research and turns out this Sound Check option muddies Apple Music playback in CarPlay systems and it is not even specific to the Supra but many car stereos in general.

Anyway once I disabled Sound Check, Apple Music started sounding better.

Cool to know though.

Spotify, select lossless audio - for premium audio quality.

Finally went for a spin in the car. I don't know if it was placebo but the music did seem to sound better. I don't want to say this simple switch made the change, but meh.. who knows?
